Levitike 17
1 Yawe alobaki na Moyize:
And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
2 « Yebisa Aron, bana na ye ya mibali mpe bana nyonso ya Isalaele, mpe loba na bango: ‹ Tala maloba oyo Yawe alobi:
Speak to Aaron, and to his sons, and to all the children of Israel, and say to them; This is the thing which the LORD hath commanded, saying,
3 ‘Moto nyonso kati na bana ya Isalaele, oyo akokata kingo ya ngombe, ya meme to ya ntaba, ezala kati na molako to na libanda ya molako;
Whatever man there may be of the house of Israel, that killeth an ox, or lamb, or goat, in the camp, or that killeth it outside of the camp,
4 mpe amemi yango te na ekotelo ya Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani mpo na kobonza yango lokola likabo epai na Yawe liboso ya Mongombo ya Yawe, makila na yango ekotangama na moto ya moto yango. Lokola asopi makila, bakolongola ye kati na bato na ye.
And bringeth it not to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, to offer an offering to the LORD before the tabernacle of the LORD; blood shall be imputed to that man; he hath shed blood; and that man shall be cut off from among his people:
5 Boye, na esika ete bana ya Isalaele bamemaka bambeka na bango na bilanga, bakomema yango mpo na Yawe epai ya Nganga-Nzambe, na ekotelo ya Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani lokola mbeka ya boyokani epai na Yawe.
To the end that the children of Israel may bring their sacrifices, which they offer in the open field, even that they may bring them to the LORD, to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, to the priest, and offer them for peace offerings to the LORD.
6 Nganga-Nzambe akobwaka makila na etumbelo ya Yawe, na ekotelo ya Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani mpe akotumba mafuta na yango lokola mbeka oyo solo kitoko na yango ekosepelisa Yawe.
And the priest shall sprinkle the blood upon the altar of the LORD at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and burn the fat for a sweet savour to the LORD.
7 Bana ya Isalaele bakobonza lisusu te bambeka na bango epai banzambe ya bikeko ya bantaba ya mibali, oyo basambelaka. Oyo ekozala malako ya libela mpo na bango mpe mpo na milongo oyo ekoya.’ ›
And they shall no more offer their sacrifices to demons, with which they have committed idolatry. This shall be a statute for ever to them throughout their generations.
8 Loba na bango: ‹ Moto nyonso ya Isalaele to mopaya nyonso oyo azali kati na bango, oyo akobonza mbeka ya kotumba to mbeka mosusu,
And thou shalt say to them, Whatever man there may be of the house of Israel, or of the strangers which sojourn among you, that offereth a burnt offering or sacrifice,
9 na kozanga komema yango na ekotelo ya Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani mpo na kobonza yango epai ya Yawe, bakolongola ye kati na bato ya Isalaele.
And bringeth it not to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, to offer it to the LORD; even that man shall be cut off from among his people.
10 Nakobalukela mpe nakolongola kati na bato na ye, moto nyonso oyo akolia makila, azala moto ya Isalaele to mopaya nyonso oyo avandi kati na bango;
And whatever man there may be of the house of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn among you, that eateth any manner of blood; I will even set my face against that soul that eateth blood, and will cut him off from among his people.
11 pamba te bomoi ya ekelamu nyonso ezali kati na makila. Napesi bino yango mpo ete bosala na yango mosala ya bolimbisi masumu mpo na bomoi na bino, na etumbelo. Lokola bomoi ya moto ezali kati na makila, yango wana makila esalaka mosala ya bolimbisi masumu.
For the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul.
12 Boye, nalobaki na bana ya Isalaele: ‘Moto moko te mpe mopaya moko te kati na bino akoki kolia makila.’
Therefore I said to the children of Israel, No soul of you shall eat blood, neither shall any stranger that sojourneth among you eat blood.
13 Moto nyonso kati na bana ya Isalaele to mopaya oyo avandi kati na bango, oyo akokende bokila mpe akokanga nyama ya zamba to ndeke oyo baliaka, asengeli kosopa makila na yango mpe kozipa yango na mabele, pamba te bomoi ya ekelamu nyonso ezali kati na makila na yango.
And whatever man there may be of the children of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn among you, who hunteth and catcheth any beast or fowl that may be eaten; he shall even pour out its blood, and cover it with dust.
14 Yango wana, nalobaki na bana ya Isalaele: ‘Bokoki kolia makila ya ekelamu ata moko te, pamba te bomoi ya ekelamu nyonso ezali kati na makila na yango. Moto oyo akolia yango, bakolongola ye kati na bato.’
For it is the life of all flesh; the blood of it is for the life of it: therefore I said to the children of Israel, Ye shall eat the blood of no manner of flesh: for the life of all flesh is its blood: whoever eateth it shall be cut off.
15 Moto nyonso, azala mwana mboka to mopaya, oyo akolia mosuni ya nyama oyo ekufi yango moko to oyo babomi na nyama ya zamba, akosukola bilamba na ye mpe nzoto na ye na mayi. Akozala mbindo kino na pokwa, sima na yango akokoma peto.
And every soul that eateth that which died of itself, or that which was torn with beasts, whether it is one of your own country, or a stranger, he shall both wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the evening: then shall he be clean.
16 Kasi soki asukoli bilamba mpe nzoto na ye te, akomema ngambo. › »
But if he doth not wash them, nor bathe his flesh; then he shall bear his iniquity.
